SENICR CLASS HISTORY 1n September of 1939, with war clouds gathering in Europe, seventy brave six-year- olds began their education here at Berryhill. We soon became accustomed to this new way of life which was presented to us by our patient first grade teachers, Miss Barnette and Miss Dulin. As we went on through grammar school, we became better acquainted with school life. Each year a few of our classmates drifted away from us, while others came to take their place. As we were beginning our third year in school, our nation was aroused to war. We traveled through a world war, the like of which the world had never seen, and as we were completing our sixth year, peace was declared for all the world. We reached the eighth grade in 1946 and were joined there by the graduates of Steele Creek. Our class entered High School with great enthusiasm. Cut Freshman oflicers were: Dick Stone, President, Mary Ellen Smith, Vice-Presidentg George Marshall, Secretary: Carolyn Davis, Treasurer. We entered our Sophomore year with the guidance of Miss Linda Lewis and Mr. Norwood. Our oflicers for that year were: jerry Henry, Presidentg Donald Hamilton. Vice-President, Mary Ellen Smith, Secretary, Dick Stone, Treasurer. As the year came to a close, we learned that we were going to lose our beloved principal, Mr. Dan S. Davis. When the time came for us to begin our junior year, we were very happy to have Mr. W. A. Hough join us as our new principal. VVith his coming, our school under- went many changes which greatly improved it. This was a big year for us-the pubf lishing of the school paper, The Berrie Stains, the presentation of the junior Play, The Campbells Are Coming, and the big event of the year, the Junior-Senior Banquet, which was a big success. The junior-Senior was held in the ballroom of the Selwyn Hotel. The ofhcers for our unior vear were: Dick Stone, Presidentg Mar'orie . . 1 Brown, Vice-President' Marv Ellen Smith, Secretary, Tommv McDaniel, Treasurer. , 4 4 1 Our unior Class sent three re nresentatives, Tommv McDaniel, Charles Hickman, l . and Dick Stone, to Boys' State, and to Cirls' State went Marjorie Brown and Betty Springs. As we returned to school in the fall of 1950, our country was again engaged in rr world crisis-the Korean War. We eagerly began the hardest but most delightful task of our Senior year-the publication of the LINK AND CHAIN under the guidance of our able advisers, Mrs. Brown and Mrs. Baker. Our Senior Class contributed to the Student Council a successful president, Dick Stone. Our Senior ollicers were: Tommy McDaniel, President, jerry Henry, Vice-President, Marjorie Brown, Secretaryg Charles Hickman, Treasurer. As Seniors we presented many programs-the Senior Play and Class Night being the most important. The banquet given us by the juniors was fully appreciated and enjoyed by every Senior. ln the heart of every Senior was a prayer for peace throughout the world as our Senior year drew to a close.
